Bugger … !
If you’ll excuse the language … !
But I’m a little … um … twitted off, right now.
My TV set’s gone and died … !
I cam in, last night, after finishing work at half past ten.
And pretty much did what I usually did.
Turned on my TV.
It didn’t.
Switch on, that is.
I made sure the batteries in the remote control were correctly in. The TV didn’t switched on.
I changed the batteries in the remote control.
It still didn’t switch on.
I didn’t check the fuse in the plug: as the little red standby light, the little red light that tells you your TV is on, but not active, was on. Electricity was getting through to the set.
I — worrying slightly — checked the internet. Amongst the various weird and wonderful bits suggestions? Were various opinions. Including one telling me that the power unit — the transformer that takes electricity from the power cable and passes it on to the TV, itself — had blown: and needing replacing.
Hmmm … Makes sense: as, whenever I unplugged the thing, that self same standby light takes about 30 seconds to switch off.
I get the feeling that replacing it … ? Would prove expensive.
As would replacing the thing: when you’re on money like mine.
I think I’m going to need help buying a new one.
Lord knows where I’m going to get that … !
